You and me both: I tried very hard to use Linux, but I couldn't find any compelling reason to stick to it. Having zfs snapshots would be nice, but not given the various pains Linux entails on the UI.
AutoHotKey has no serious match on Linux, but it's not the main reason I stick to Windows: it's the terminal support.
I'm a heavy terminal user, and I found my experience seriously worse on Linux than on Windows, with no way to replicate something as good as mintty.
I seriously considered finding a way to make mintty work on wine, before giving up.
When Windows Terminal achieves sixel support, maybe we'll see a port of WT to Linux? That'd be fun :)
Like with Edge on Linux that may incentivize me to try Ubuntu again!
- rbanffy 5y agoGnome terminal is about to get sixel support anytime soon, as is Windows Terminal. There is a lot of discussion on how to properly support it in a way that doesn't break legacy applications that used it while, at the same time, providing a good experience for the new ones. I never imagined that mintty would support Tektronix graphics, much less the dual-color storage tubes!
